A recent report by The Defiant reveals that Coinbase holds a substantial 11% of the total Bitcoin supply, amounting to approximately 2.275 million BTC worth around $129 billion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As the fourth-largest cryptocurrency exchange globally, Coinbase commands significant trading volume\u2014$1.5 billion in 24-hour transactions and 34 million monthly users\u2014and acts as a custodian for major corporations, including BlackRock, Tesla, and MicroStrategy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Could A Bitcoin Fork Be On The Horizon?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

While some experts, like Steven Lubka from Swan Private, believe a catastrophic loss is unlikely due to Coinbase’s \u201cadvanced security measures,\u201d the risk of custodial centralization remains a concern.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The idea of a Bitcoin fork to recover lost assets\u2014similar to the Ethereum situation following the DAO hack in 2016\u2014has been suggested.
